Bowl Sunday, Pampers, the #1 choice of parents*, is rooting for “Team Dad” with a new video remix of
John Legend’s popular hit “Stinky Booty Duty.” The video debuts today starring John Legend and his
family – Chrissy, Luna and Miles – alongside Adam Levine and his daughter Gio Grace, and celebrates the
important role dads play in their babies’ lives and kicks off Pampers' new campaign “Love the Change.”
P&G's Sarah Pasquinucci on why the diaper brand's Super Bowl ad strategy didn't include a TV
spot.
Feature
This year, Pampers went the non-traditional route of creating a Super Bowl ad that didn’t run on
television. Instead, the diaper company released a social and digital-only ad featuring celebrity
dads, including singers John Legend and Maroon Five’s Adam Levine, singing about changing
their babies’ stinky diapers.
Strategy
"Somebody's got a stinky booty. Her name is Luna and she made a poopy."
Those were the lyrics to a song Legend serenaded his daughter with while changing her diaper in
a successful Pampers ad last summer.
The company wanted to do a sequel of the ad as a celebration of dads and the changes
parenthood brings. Enter Stinky Booty Duty 2.0. Brainstorming for the campaign began in
November 2018. By early December, Pampers had settled on a concept strong enough to debut
during Super Bowl LIII as an online-only ad.
"Our goal was to use the nation’s largest advertising and social media stage to connect with
parents - both moms and dads alike," said Sarah Pasquinucci, associate director of
communications for North America Baby Care at P&G.
